I was shocked by the CNN anchor cutting off Representative King in such a forceful manner.

Rep King sits on the committee for airline security and is keenly involved in this, but I guess CNN does not consider him a reliable source........that means if it does not come from a liberal, CNN does not report it.

Yes, you are correct, that is how it works.

Because in Obama’s Thousand Year Reich (thanks to Ann Coulter for that one), the media works for the White House and so does the Speaker of the House. Rep King is just one of Pelosi’s flunkies, so CNN outranks him.

Just another Change!

I consider CNN’s behavior on this episode to be a classic and continual example of inept they really are. Here you had an actual expert and authority on the show...and they really didn’t want him to display any of his knowledge. So they sit and wait twelve hours...until the cops will give exclusive information to them...and then they cite confidential sources then.

On an average day....IF I were to watch CNN for twelve hours....I could show you forty such examples that come and go. It’s almost like watching the Three Stooges performing news analysis and expecting 8th grade students to run the operation. Yet, they don’t seem to mind the poor performance.

If Rep King had stopped the joker, and simply said...”I am an authority on this matter”...they probably would have cut him off at that point.
